“Hey everyone, this is Chris aka tidus. Its about 5:00 and 24th, Christmas eve. I've tried to make two other phone posts, but they haven’t gone too well. The first one I tried to make from the Bay Area Animation Society party and for some reason it didn't get posted at all. And then I tried to make one from a party last night where I was playing Dance Dance Revolution with a bunch of people on Livejournal at my friend Justin's place (LJ username --) and um that didn’t go too well because I heard the post afterwards and I couldn’t understand anything I was saying. I got a whopping one comment that was impressive. Anyway, I'm at work and I figured I'd record something legible so everyone would understand me when I wish them a happy Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza and whatever else. You all mean a lot to me and the holiday is an awful special time for everyone. If you do anything crazy have fun. I apparently like to listen to myself talk, so I'm going to try and make this one about 5 minutes long. I'm primarily posting this because I wanted my friend Lindsey to hear my voice, and everyone else will be curious about this too. I can't think of much lese to say except I'm listening to some crappy music that some weird person. All I ever do is plug people, which is weird. I'm trying to think of some clever way to wish you all Merry Christmas but I cant think of anything. Gift giving is important, but being with your family is <i>much more</i> important. It is one thing to go out and buy something, throw it in their lap and wish them a merry Christmas, and another thing to genuinely love them, show them that you love them with a gift that is thoughtful(if that is even important to you. The love is the important thing). I shouldn’t be online here at work, I work at a baby store. I sell strollers, and love it! God granted me such a cool jobs. For those who don’t know, I enjoy long walks on the beach, pizza, flirting, and hot man sex. I like to say "yeah hey" a lot when I'm talking. My voice is kinda deep; I think that has something to do, especially today, since I drank. IU had something like 3 cups of Bacardi Razz, but I didn't get a hangover, and I was still able to play DDR, unlike the last DDR drinking party I was at where I was getting Ds on every song I played- when I wasn't failing. Anyway drinking is bad, don't do it, I'm living proof, all my brain cells are gone hich is why I'm rambling. After all the phone posts my friend Grace has done - she has so many Livejournal usernames (sleep_underscore is her most recent one) Sorry I'm not sounding like I'm having much fun as last night, it's because I'm at work talking to strangers. It looks like this is getting up to 5.00 minutes, so I'll remind you all that I'm here for everyone if you need anything. Just give me a call - 415-302-8869. And please take care of yourself. Bye”

...you always seem really quick to comment on my journal entries. Thank you... I can tell that we're going to become even closer as friends in time. Perhaps we'll do some naughty drinking together one day. ;) Thanks for all the shiny objects, cutie.

Your friendship truly has honored me since we first met. I should give you a call later tonight, if I have time. Have a wonderful holiday season, gorgeous... and please take care. I hope that you're feeling and doing well.

Don't be silly, Kimmy. You must know by now that your comments will always be welcome here in my journal. In fact... you can write whatever you wish here, as often as you like. Thank you for being my friend, and reading (or listening to, hee hee!) my journal entries. :)

And a very Merry Christmas to you, Chris. ^___^ *plays with your hair* Oh, and thanks for the mention. *blush* That really made my night.

The last part of my username is actually pronounced "Ken - show" (I think you said "Ken - shoe"), not that that matters. Just thought I'd point it out.

I tried listening to your other voice Post, but I couldn't really understand it, so I'm happy that you posted a second one (or rather, third one?). You have such a lovely deep voice. ^_^

It's too bad that you have to work on Christmas Eve (technically, I'm working tonight too, but comics don't feel the way a real job does in situations such as this). Hope you're having fun while you are there, at least. ^_^

Thanks for telling me how to pronounce your LiveJournal user name, Lindsay... I was curious about that for a while, and I had to guess when I was making this phone post. It's been a long time since Minako's Kenshou Dojo, hasn't it... like 5 years now, right? I remember how beautiful you looked in your picture on that Web site... when you were younger, and your hair was even longer. I think you were standing on grass, looking more shy than you do these days.

Your smiles are bigger now... and those smiles warm my heart every time I look at your picture.

Thanks for making my night tonight. Your compliment on my voice is flattering, and it means so much to me that you enjoy listening to me speak. If I ever get the chance to meet you, it's going to be difficult to watch you leave. You've somehow managed to become even more beautiful over the years... and thus I can tell that you'll be irresistible when we meet. I hope we can talk soon, my alluring friend. Your compassion means the world to me.

Hey Chris! I'm glad your holidays are going well. I hope you are enjoying all the naughty drinking ohohoho ^_^ I would like to give you a call after the holidays because I still have not yet sent out any cards...so you will just have to get a new year's one ^^; Ta!

That would be wonderful, Natalie. Do you need my physical mailing address, or did you mean an e-card? If you need it, I'd be happy to e-mail it to you. As always, you're welcome to call me any time (of course). Speaking of calling... did you get the voice mail I left you on/around Christmas?

Sweetheart, when can I call you again? I still don't know how to reach you. I just hope that you had a Merry Christmas, as I honestly don't know how you were feeling then. I hope that your family and friends were able to warm your soul, and bring you joy. I wish that I could have helped, too. I miss you...

^_^ You seem to be in a much better mood than you were in your last post. Do you really work at a baby store? Or were you joking? XD It's so hard to tell with you. Personally, I think I'd rather love that job. Used to be a Daycare teacher and all.

Anyhow, I hope your holidays go well. Mine will be pretty boring, as it will mostly be me sleeping in as late as I can get my sister to let me and then possibly playing FFX-2 all the rest of the day.

Yes, I really work at a baby store called The Right Start. Crazy, huh? I love it, though... but I'm giving my two weeks notice very soon. I want a higher paying job, or at least a job right by my apartment... and I've been offered one that's right across the street from my new place (which will also most likely pay better), so I'm done. The company is shit, too. I only stuck with the job this long because the children are too cute, and the parents have been surprisingly kind considering the area in which I live.

*softly kisses your lips* Hi. :) I wish you were here, and I really should call you later today. It's been way too long. Can you please text message me your phone number so that I don't have to track it down again... perhaps along with a good time to call you?

...you're so sweet. Thank you so much; your recent support means a lot to me. If you like my voice so much, we should talk on the phone some time! *grin* I wish I could call you, actually... but you're in Japan, if I remember correctly. I don't know how to call you from the US, as I only have a cellular phone. Let me know if you're ever in my neck of the woods, though... perhaps we can hang out, and I'd be happy to call you if you're ever anywhere in the country. :)
